Hi. Today we talk with Dave Schilling about the dark carnival fever dream that was the RNC, the NBA's wildcat strike, the tragedies in Kenosha, and even more news.

There is a video of a militia member telling protesters they coordinated with the cops. He said the cops told the militia members that the cops would round up protesters and get them to an area the militia members would be. And then leave. 😬

I really don't want to be that person but I have a note about the episode. Anarchy does not mean "chaos." It means "no hierarchy." The idea that a lack of hierarchy means things will be chaos and madness is propaganda going back centuries. Anarchists advocate for systems of organization that are horizontal and do not give individuals authority over others. Anarchist theory spans centuries and much of it explains in detail how these systems work and ways they have been employed in the past. A lot of the people currently out in the streets providing medical/food/jail support for protesters are anarchists. Dismissing their beliefs as "chaos" is pretty hurtful and does anarchists a huge disservice. I'm not trying to be a tyrant, I just wanted to bring attention to an issue with how something is being framed.

I was shocked to hear it go unchallenged as well. Given the current state of things pushing the idea that anarchy means chaos will get thousands of people who actively work to make the world a better place killed, maimed, or imprisoned. Anarchists have been warning about/fighting fascists for decades and it's upsetting to see them done so dirty by people with such a large platform.
